gentlemen so a big night for Virgil
Ortiz Jr the big fight with Tim zoo in
in August hanging in the balance if he
wants that he’s got to go through an old
friend in Thomas
doret the former World title Challenger
trying to hang on to his career and his
relevance now at 154 Tomy you ready
there’s no friends in boxing Cory
Strictly
Business Friends by day enemies By
Night round one under way and Virgil
Ortiz is all business all the
time so I’m stopping Frederick Lawson in
the opening round I’ll be it’s a
controversial stoppage but that’s part
of the story too Chris is that as much
as we’re thinking about that fight down
the road Virgil Ortiz has had what one
round in a handful of years yeah he said
coming into this fight he would love
nothing more than to get some rounds now
I think members of his team would
probably disagree with a huge fight
against Tim zoo in the offing they’d
probably like to get this done sooner
rather than later but Virgil understands
there’s some ring rust that’s attached
to him right now and the only way to get
rid of it is to get some rounds in
absolutely and you get those off but
just little by little not going for The
Knockout just you know start start
getting those cobwebs off with the jab
you know pushing your your opponent back
don’t load up on your shots too
early dmet firing that right hand over
the top blocked by Ortiz one thing that
Ortiz said he remembered about some of
those sparring sessions of course delor
May thought they went his way but Ortiz
specifically remember a sequence where
he said he rocked him with seven
straight Jabs yeah delman told us that
in those sparting sessions that Virgil
doesn’t like uh going backwards that’s
normally the case with big punchers they
they don’t fight as well going backwards
and they do forwards but it’s easier
said than done you know V Ortiz has to
respect you uh in order for him to start
backing
up just missed with that left hand
Ortiz Ortiz is the type of guy we’ve
seen it before he can hurt you and drop
you with Jabs you know it’s just a a
battering ram of a jab once he starts
letting it go with full
force you know Ortiz doesn’t waste
punches he he he makes that ring smaller
and smaller just with with presence with
that pressure and then once he unleashes
with those combinations you know it’s
it’s not only devastating but it’s
intimidating to go forward let him go
let him go all right stop stop the power
is the pressure you know you don’t
always think about this when it comes to
pressure Fighters power punchers it’s
foot speed it’s it’s walking opponents
down the way that Ortiz does as he just
misses over the top of that right hand
Thomas I wouldn’t go as far as say foot
speed it’s foot timing that that that
Ortiz has he knows how to you know punch
when he’s at range he doesn’t he doesn’t
waste punches when he’s out of range so
that’s why good shot to the body and
Thomas delet rolling around in a
heap way too early Del’s not getting
he is not getting up and you could see
the look on Virgil Ortiz’s face when he
landed that punch knew exactly what he
hit Virgil Ortiz hurt Aus kevz to the
body he found a home for that left hook
to Thomas delman a veteran who’s been in
there with everybody every name Virg
Ortiz junor gets it done in under 3
minutes well that is a home run hitter
of a puncher and just like a home run
hitter who knows when the ball is gone
Virgil Ortiz was pimping that shot
before it left the ballpark hit him
right in The Sweet Spot it doesn’t
always have to be the chin that liver
would just work just as
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
well we see the doctor checking on
Thomas delet that did not take long what
a body shot I just can’t get any from
Virgil Ortiz
[Music]
Jr 21 for
21 21 consecutive
Knockouts in the career of Virgil Ortiz
[Music]
Jr let’s take a look back at it why do
you got to hit so hard is what referee
Thomas Taylor tell Virgil Ortiz Jr
listen we don’t get paid for overtime so
Brig Ortiz got it done quick just a
beautiful
shot right you can see him trying to set
up that shot right around the elbow it
it wasn’t even a clean shot that’s how
hard or punches it was right around the
elbow caught him right on the bottom of
that it was just way too early to get
hit with clean shots like that by a
devastating puncher in Ortiz Jr but
delman credit to him he could take it
upstairs he’s been in there with the
biggest names but this young kid has
dynamite in both fists yeah and you know
we always say you know with with head
shot knockout sergy when you see a guy
go down face first that’s generally an
indication he’s not get he’s not going
to get up with a body shot if you see a
guy in the fetal position they’re
definitely not getting back up to their
feet at delor was in agony after that
shot it’s it’s rare it’s a rarity Cory
for for for a fighter to get up from a
from a body shot that early when they
cringe up like that they’re in pain
they’re in devastating pain takes a lot
of courage and a lot of heart Thomas
DeLorme refused to get
[Music]
[Applause]

terms of where he’ll go with his career
